No Doubt
(S) Scripture
1 John 5:11-13
11And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.
Concluding Remarks 13I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life.
(O) Observation
John has been describing overcoming the world. He tells us that faith in Jesus Christ is what allows us to overcome the evil one and the sin in our lives. Evidently there were those who thought you could lose your salvation and so John gives this incredible statement of truth for their benefit. Those who believe in God's Son, Jesus, can know they have eternal life. No doubt - can know.
(A) Application
What a testimony for all of us. We can know... In a world with so many doubts and fuzzy things - a world built on emotion and how one feels - this is not emotion but fact. We can know we have eternal life. No doubt - we no longer worry. This motivates us to live for Jesus. We cannot go on living a life of willful sin after being forgiven so much. No doubt in spite of the devil's attacks - we can know - No Doubt.
(P) Prayer
Lord for this security and for your love that empowers it, I thank you. Let me live for you today without doubts. Amen
